Wing mirror squeak

[Arjxh56]

One of my wing mirrors has started squeaking when folding. I am thinking I should squirt wd40 between the mirror and mount to stop it? Is that the right thing to do???

I don't see why not, worth putting some paper behind when you spray to keep it off the paint / windows.

Personaly I'd use an aerosol silicon lube, rather than WD40...

Indeed....Water Displacing 40 isn't really intended as a lubricant, and any effects will only be temporary.

Nice one, I will use silicone spray. Thanks
